It's not the softest of rides but if you put all your weight forward, yes it does compress. Need a 4MM hex key with 200MM of reach to go through the headset to adjust it...
Most annoying part of its design is the hinge adds a few MM of play between the wheel and handlebars. Makes balancing whilst stopped a bit interesting.

My current run around is the Roux G8

Added full guards to it and plan to change the shifter from the twist shift to a button operated. Also will add disk brake to front wheel at some point.
Though I am having some trouble with it, i think the roller clutch in the hub is slipping causing it to spin the cranks half a turn a few seconds after gear change.

The whole stopping at the French embassy was over the death of a protester in France.

It has causes bigger riots in France.
Whilst I know mass is a demonstration in its self, I feel its fair to say that most of the people on mass didn't want to be involved with the paint and fireworks that were used at the embassy, expecialy so as half the mass was around the corner and couldn't even see what was going on.
I feel that the actions of literally only 6/7 people have harmed the hands off approach the police have with the mass.
Also after we left Oxford street the protesters rushed ahead to the embassy causing massive fragmentation to the mass down park lane.
But apart from that it was a really good turn out, and not a bad mass.
